Default any law enforcement on here?

I've heard all sorts of jobs being mentioned when on the trails but never any sort of law enforcement. I'm sure there's a good reason for this = no time to ride? hours? etc

just wondering if any members here are officers or the sort


<--filling out local p.d. applications, wondering if i'll ever have time to ride a bike again

Ok. So you're the one I met! Nice to say hello again. don't be so quiet on the trails. We missed you at Roscoe's.

Oh....I don't work in law enforcement but was considered for the academy for FBI when I graduated from college.

I deal with them a lot for work, I use to only deal with the for about 3 years. I know they have the time maybe just not there thing. Most have 4 on 3 off schedules with 10 hour shifts, i think LAPD even has 3 on 4 off with 12 shifts. With that being said it will depend on the agency you are applying with. You probably won't have a lot of time while in the academy. Also depending on the agency if they find out your a rider you may end up on bike patrol though , which could be both good and bad.

if he is, he has some explaining to do! I've ridden with Joe a hand full of times and he's never said anything. Then again i'm not quite sure what Joe does to have that much free time. I think he's a gigolo.

I could be wrong! I thought I read it somewhere, but possibly different person.

Sorry if so

I know who the cops are on here with just their posts. I know Gene and Mr. CalEpic are the STR cops. Really don't taze me guys

man, you guys are blowing my cover. i'm deep deep deep deep undercover so please stop talking about me before you out me & get me shot.

Edit: One of the reasons why I got into law enforcement was the ability to be able to grope hot women without being assaulted or worse, incarcerated.

The sucky part about my job; every time I see ODB now, he claims to have illegal drugs and a loaded weapon on him, proceeds to drop his pants and insists on having a cavity search. Every job has it's down sides and that's happens to be mine. It's no fun putting your foot up a friends arss but someone's gotta do it.

Give me credit where credit is due. I should be a FBI profiler. I knew Joe was a cop by just a few of his posts. I have never even met Joe. I called you out on it. Remember ?
